Cambridge, MA → Savannah, GA · Long-distance move
About 1,067 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,220–$7,770, delivery in 3–7 days, 490 carriers on the Cambridge side and 285 in Savannah.
The route from Cambridge, MA to Savannah, GA covers roughly 1,067 miles by road, a southwest-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $5,220 to $7,770 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 19 h 6 min.
On the Cambridge side there are 490 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (287 of them authorized for interstate work), and 285 around Savannah (170 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Savannah.
Cambridge has a population of about 122,588 and Savannah about 149,440. Cambridge is considerably denser (18,500 people per square mile versus 1,384), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Georgia than in Massachusetts, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,067 road miles (904 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 6 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Massachusetts into Georgia makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,550 to $2,180 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,970 to $2,900. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Cambridge–Savannah corridor.
